Leadership Skills for a Successful 1071 Implementation

On September 1, 2021, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) issued a proposed rule to amend Regulation B by implementing the requirements of section 1071 of the Dodd-Frank Act. This long-anticipated rule is going to be one of the most significant regulatory changes of the decade for many financial institutions. Imagine implementing a HMDA program from scratch. Well, that is exactly what is going to happen with this proposal: it is basically going to be a HMDA for commercial loans. While the 1071 amendments to Regulation B are currently only a proposed rule, the significance of this future final rule is so massive, that it’s not too early to start planning for this significant change.

This program takes a deep dive into change management and leadership skills that can be used to help implement the 1071 rule. While this program is specifically designed with the 1071 rule in mind, we also recognize that many of the skills and tips included in this program would benefit compliance and other banking professionals when they are responsible for implementing something new within their financial institution.

While most of our classes are designed to take a deep dive into a rule or regulation, it is important to understand that this program is a little different from our other compliance-focused classes: this truly is a class on leadership and change management skills for compliance and risk-management professionals. In this program, our instructor pulls from both his two decades of working as a compliance professional as well as industry best practices in change management to deliver practical strategies for leading a change like the implementation of the 1071 rule.

Specifically, this class begins with an introduction to change management where we discuss a couple of stories relating to change and even discuss a useful formula that can be used to predict the effectiveness of a change initiative. After this, our program covers a very brief overview of the 1071 proposal. Again, this is not a deep dive into the 1071 rule, but rather a brief overview of the proposal so that there is context of what change managers will be facing when implementing the 1071 rule. Next, our program continues with a higher level discussion on a couple of change management frameworks on how change can be implemented within an organization and a compliance management system. After that, our program shifts to a hands on, practical application approach where we provide seven leadership skills that may be useful in implementing the 1071 rule. Finally, this program concludes with several steps that could be taken now if someone is wanting to get started on implementing the 1071 rule before it is even finalized.

Who Should Attend?

This program is designed for that person or team who's going to be responsible for implementing the change of the 1071 rule in your organization. So this program might be good for one person who's the the change champion or the change leader, but it might also be good for the entire change team who has to be responsible for implementing the 1071 rules.

What is Included in the Compliance Class?

  • 60-day access to the class

The Virtual Classroom Approach

All of our Compliance Classes are presented in our virtual classroom approach.  This approach is designed to bring the presenter to you (at a fraction of the cost of having a live person) and includes a video of the presenter in front of a slide presentation that replicates a typical seminar environment.  In addition, our presenters take a three-part approach to compliance instruction: to educate, to empower, and to entertain. This is achieved by focusing on relevant topics, speaking in simple to understand, layman's terms, and by keeping it light and humorous whenever possible.  We have found that this "3-E" approach allow students to learn as quickly and effectively as possible. And, it adds a little bit of fun to an otherwise dreadful topic.

Certificate of Completion

Certificates of completion are available upon request. One certificate is available per registration.

60-Day Access

When you purchase this compliance class, you get instant access to the online version of this class for 60 days.  You will also receive an electronic version of the accompanying manual to keep.
